Cpt. JackNeed Gunsmith Recommendation
I have a Whitworth .375 that is in need of some trigger and ejector work. I'm in Bend, OR and would prefer to take it to a gunsmith I can talk face to face with rather than send it off somewhere. Anybody know of a good riflesmith in my neck of the woods (Oregon or Western Idaho) they would recommend?
Appreciate the help.

buckeyeshooterCpt. Jack,
I flew into Lewiston several years ago on a bear hunt. My hunting partner had his 454 casul handgun broken by the airlines in transit. The gunsmith at the downtown shop in Lewistion (can't remember the name)made and replaced the firing pin and shaft the cylinder turns on in about an hour. If I needed work done, I would try this guy. He can make a silk purse from a sow's ear. It was a nice shop with lots of antique winchester lever guns hanging on the back wall.
